Chapter 6-Final Frontiers

Simone and his crew moves away for one last time, however, noticing this, Gene asked Simone to return already and grab the money Kyle promised...

"Not now", said Simone "I'll be back later, i believe Kyle will pay me even more if this is what i done..."

"Whatever...I have no idea what Mortimer will respond to it...", said Gene "Also...why are you bringing the Tylo Lander ?"

"Attachment failure..."

"Ok...go on and Land as much as you wish...don't waste any fuel reserve ! Use them !"

"Of course ! That's what i wanted !"

Plotting a Mun assist.

Another Mun assist to leave Kerbin's SOI...

Eve assist following a useless Eve assist, useless as there's no energy efficiency.

Kerbin assist.

Kerbin assist, amplified with a Mun assist.

After that assist, we're floating with an immediate encounter with Terriblis, the Blue thing between Dres and Jool.

Badurra assist to capture in Terriblis orbit

"I wonder why our engineers are so afraid of these two...especially Terriblis...", said Simone.

After a bothersome amount of Burns, we are going to Mez, Terriblis' smaller and Near Polar moon.

Mez capture burn.

Bob plants the flag.

Escape burn.

Inclination matching.

Outcome..

Badurra assist.

Kronos assist to match Putto's Inclination.

Putto capture.

Simone dispatches.

plants his flag...

And reaches Orbit.

Later they come to Dhar.

Val lands...

Plants flag...

Then reunite with everyone else...

They later came to Rheis.

Jeb leaves...

Plants flag...

And reunites, they later left Rheis and Putto in one big fat burn.

See ya !!!

"An Ellipsoid !??!!? AWESOME !!!", said Bob who always wanted to see Ellipsoids.

Capture burning...

Shortly...Bill lands on Oorma.

And Rendezvous before heading to...

...Phoe...

Bill plants the flag again...

They later escaped Phoe in one big big burn from Phoe's Surface...

And continued with an Oorma escape...

"Bye you two !!!"

Arriving at Arane...

Jeb dispatches to land on Arane.

Plants flag...

And after reuniting, they head to another destination...

Nuu...

They captured...

Jeb dispatches...

And lands on Nuu...

Everyone initiates escape burn from both Nuu and Arane at once.

And waved at Arane and Nuu...

Kronos assist to match it's Inclination.

Then we fix more of our Inclination to it and encountered it...

Capture Trajectory with Zeruel's help...

Zeruel assist from close.

Encountered Zeruel again...this time...we captured ourself...

Matching Ovis' Inclination...

Ovis encounter...

Ovis capture burn.

Simone dispatches to land on Ovis.

Perfect timing, Perfect placing...

Simone reunites and leaves Ovis.

And eventually Zeruel, after a bunch of bothersome burns...

Come on...you two...i can still see you in this system...

We'll need this Trajectory later...

Aleph assist...that's why we set that Trajectory earlier...

After securing our Orbit from any possible Aleph counters...Simone leaves...

"Why should you leave now...Commander ?", asked Val.

"Delta V Budget LOL...Silly...", answered Simone.

"Now we're having 1000 m/s per burn...the Mothesheep can only do 120 m/s per burn", said Simone.

Then he encountered Shrek, which is....terrifyingly fast...it Orbits as fast as Kerbin...

His encounter burn is also something the Mothersheep can't do in one burn.

After capturing and a bit of futzing around, Simone landed here...

Shrek escape once he ascended to a stable Orbit...

"Bye Shrek...i suppose this is farewell !!!", said Simone.

"CAREFUL COMMANDER !!! CAREFUL COMMANDER !!! CAREFUL CO- WHAAAAAAAAA !!!!!!!!!!!!!", yelled everyone else as Simone comes dangerously fast...

Fortunately, Simone rotates the Lander, and managed to Evade any potential collision with the Mothersheep.

They later plotted another Aleph assist to allow them to use a Zeruel assist.

Zeruel assist 1.

Assist 2...

And assist 3, we'll stay this way until a certain Transfer window.

As soon as the window is achieved, They initiated a Zeruel assist.

And drifts away from the massive Juggernaut (Kronos) and it's moons.

And we moved to the furthest Destination...Lotus...

The Final Frontier...

Lotus capture burn...

It's so lonely out here...

"Commander what are you- ?!", asked Bill before Simone interrupts him with :

"I'm trying to land on EVA LOL"

Simone plants a flag.

And eventually Rendezvous with Mothersheep.

The Mothersheep moved to a newly discovered Gas Planet.

...Sloan...

After the encounter with a previous Orbit, we futzed around a bit and gained our second encounter, later used Tiras to capture in.

Tiras close up...in lower left...

After spotting Akel, we later try to capture, it's Gravity is enough for Megawatt to actually land there.

After multiple Akel assists, now we're slow enough to capture in.

Capturing in...

Jeb moves to land...

And plants a flag of Achievement...

And eventually reunited...

Val leaves Akel to head to Vra, Sloan's smallest and innermost moon.

"Until then...Akel...", said Val as she left it.

Vra...it's nearing it's own Roche Limit, which explains why it's so hard to get to...

But even the...Val still landed there...with Simone's favorite Panorama in the Background...

Val escapes Vra...

And waves as she leaves Vra...

And re-encountered Akel...

"Great Val...now lets reunite !", said Simone.

An escape burn that unleashed Akel's Gravity momentum (or whatever it is) was done to gain maximum efficiency.

And an Akel assist to reach Tiras' SMA.

Then another one to match Tiras' Inclination.

Tiras assist to kill more Relative Inclination and raise our Orbit.

And another to eject straight to Flo.

And the Tiras assist was the farewell to Sloan and its moons.

After a series of burns, they reached Flo...

Flo capture.

Bill moves to land there.

Plants flag.

And reunites.

They later moved to Es.

We also did a straightforward encounter (Read : Direct shot).

Trying to land.

Bob plants the flag on Es.

Eventually, we moved from Es' Surface, to Orbit, then straightforward escape Es and even Flo in one giant burn.

Salus assist to match it's own Inclination.

Massive Ringy boii...

After some Kerbolar futz, we encountered Salus again, then Capture this time...

And eventually...They got to Dauble...capture burn is split into two burns, where the first delivers another Dauble encounter.

And second get this over, we're capable of expending 150 m/s  per burn now.

Capturing in Dauble.

Val tries to land on Dauble.

And nailed it...

Reuniting later...

Bill moved to go to Durus...

Of course...it requires him to leave Dauble.

Durus look like a Diamond, though it's no Diamond.

Bill aims to land there.

Lands...

Escapes...

And drifts away...

Re-encountered Dauble.

And eventually Mothersheep...

Simone moves away from Dauble...

Drifts away...

Played with Maneuvers...

Encounters Duran...

And lands there.

Ascends to get a good angle to leave Duran.

And leaves Duran...

Eventually, he made it back to Dauble.

Capture burn to gain Dauble Orbit.

Eventually...he made it back to the Mothersheep, even though one of the Smaller Panels broke...

Mothersheep leaves Dauble...

And moved to a very high Salus Orbit.

Then a very close Oberth Burn...

And go to a point where we can no longer see Salus' sphere.

Our Ejection Trajectory gave us a Terriblis encounter with the cost of little burns and futzes...

"Thanks for the Gravity", said Bill.

Kerbin assist 1.

Kerbin assist 2 + Mun assist.

Burning to approach Kerbin.

Bracing to do some Aerobrakes.

Aerobrake 3.

Raising Periapsis to a safe height.

Waiting to encounter the Main Hub.

"Phew...we're done...", said Bob...

"Wait...COMMANDER !!! ARE YOU CRAZY !!!", yelled Bob who saw Simone and Jeb leaving with the Main Hub.

"GG Bob...you should've know it !!!", replied Simone who believes Bob knew the answer.

Those two headed to Orbin...

Powered Aerocapture...

Burning for a better Nuuma capture.

Jeb dispatched and entered Nuuma's SOI in a good encounter.

Capture burn...

Landing on Nuuma...

Landed...

Drifts away...

And Rendezvous with Main Hub...

After 2 burns, The Main Hub leaves Orbin and set to an Eve encounter.

Thanks Eve...

Kerbin encounter.

Aerobrake 1, or Aerocapture.

Aerobrake 2.

Final Aerobrake.

Thankfully...we landed near the KSC...and brought the Dockable Parachute module...

Parachute expands...

Simone end up getting a bit exhausted, and lost his Top notch controlling skills in the final moments...but everything are still mostly recoverable.

"Commander has returned, now's our turn", said Val, the only Pilot left in The Mothersheep.

This Maneuver should get us somewhere near the KSC.

Final Aerobrake.

"THERE !!! I SEE THE KSC !!!", shouted Bill in joy...

"OPEN THE CHUTES !!!!!!!!", said Bob...

"That was hard...but we're done now...I'm very relieved...", said Val...

And eventually...Simone and Jeb picked them up and take a rest with them, waiting for tomorrow for a celebration...while Mortimer reported Kyle and nervously awaits a reply...
